150 House Democrats back Biden’s unconditional return to Iran’s nuclear deal

150 Democrat members of US Congress said that they want the United States to return to the Iran nuclear deal without any new conditions.

On May 8, 2018, the outgoing US President Donald Trump announced his country’s withdrawal from the nuclear agreement signed between Iran and the P5 + 1 group in 2015, which was unanimously adopted by the UN Security Council under Resolution 2231. The US withdrawal took place amid widespread international criticism and condemnation.

“Iran International” website reported on Thursday that in a letter to Joe Biden, 150 Democrat members of US Congress announced their support for the next administration to reenter the Iran nuclear deal (JCPOA) without any new conditions. The members of Congress began their letter by congratulating Biden for his election as the next president of the United States, welcoming what they referred to as the “restoration of American leadership and diplomacy”.

 The 150 signatories then turned the subject of Iran: “We know preventing Iran from obtaining a nuclear weapon through diplomacy will be a top priority of your administration, and we strongly believe that the JCPOA provides a critical framework to achieve this goal effectively.”

The signatories also hinted that they would support Biden in lifting some of the sanctions on Iran in order to bring Iran back to compliance with the deal: “We understand that returning to the agreement will require the selective lifting of some sanctions and rigorous implementation to verifiably ensure Iranian compliance.”
